HUDSON â Two Twin County college students died in the bombing of Pan American Flight 103 in 1988 over Lockerbie, Scotland, and their deaths are being remembered with the filing of criminal charges Monday against a Libyan man accused of making the bomb.
J.P. Flynn, 21, of Hunter, and Christopher Andrew Jones, 20, of Claverack, were among 270 people killed in the bombing.
On Monday, 32 years after the explosion, Abu Agela Masâud Kheir Al-Marimi (Masud), was charged with destruction of an aircraft resulting in death and destruction of a vehicle used in interstate or foreign commerce by an explosion resulting in death.
The deadly attack on Dec. 21, 1988, blasted apart a Boeing 747 just 38 minutes after the plane took off from Heathrow Airport in London bound for JFK International Airport in New York City.
